Hello! My name is Claudia Hefner and I am very excited to be starting my first year at Wagner High School!

This year I am teaching Introduction to Culinary Arts and Culinary Arts. My family and I have been living in Texas for 2 years now. We originally hail from Chicago.

I come with 10 years of experience working in the food industry in various capacities, but mostly as a Pastry Chef. I am very passionate about teaching the love of all things culinary. I hope to spark that love in all my students!

Along with our Wagner Vision and Core Values, my students are also expected to follow the 10 Culinary Commandments in my kitchen.

I am looking forward to a great 2022-2023 school year!
